You are not in the least dispassionate about Hillary. Here is an article from ABC News from the horse’s mouth (Comey).
What FBI Director James Comey Really Said About Hillary Clinton Email Probe
A comprehensive summary of what James Comey told lawmakers about the case.
It's a complicated matter," Comey said of why Clinton could not be charged with violating a federal law that makes it a crime to exhibit gross negligence in handling classified information — regardless of intent.
The statute was passed in 1917, without a "great definition" for "gross negligence," he said, and even then lawmakers had "a lot of concern ... whether that was going to violate the American tradition of requiring that before you go and lock somebody up, you proved they knew they were doing something wrong."
The Clinton campaign official reiterated that Clinton did not believe the materials she was handling were classified.
The Justice Department has brought charges under the law only once — in 2003, after it realized an FBI agent was having an 18-year affair with an FBI informant and sharing classified information and sensitive investigative details with her. The informant was a double agent and was passing that information to the Chinese government, creating "compromises within the [FBI's] China program," as a report by the Justice Department's inspector general put it. Agent James J. Smith was charged with gross negligence in handling classified documents, and he ultimately pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and was sentenced to three years of probation.
Nevertheless, Justice Department officials — through Republican and Democratic administrations — have long had "grave concerns" that the law is "invalid" and would be challenged on constitutional grounds if used to bring charges again, Comey insisted.
"For 99 years, they've been very worried about its constitutionality," he said.
While some believe Clinton benefited from a double standard, Comey said, "You know what would be a double standard? If she were prosecuted for gross negligence."

You claim you don’t know where the Clintons got their money. Ok. You apparently didn’t look. She was on the board of Wal-Mart. How much does that pay?
Hang up your dumb conspiracy theories. She would’ve been indicted by now if she was masterminding criminality. Give it up.

Uh-huh. Why didn't he share that with his family instead of them getting money under the table?
Sorry amigo. Well documented that Bill, during Hillary's stint as Secretary of State, was getting paid $500k or more per speech. Hillary did too after she left office and was the presumed next president. And hundreds of millions flowed into their foundation. Odd how after she lost all of that dried up. She was getting turned down for $50k a speech.

Turns out speeches by powerful people are super expensive. That’s the way it works.

Powerful people handle their finances in a tax-advantaged way. Trump said that was being “smart”. So what? If you have a problem with it then work with the only party interested in tax reform (DEMOCRATIC PARTY) and let’s get the laws changed. Good grief.
So I guess they'll just have to keep getting millions distributed to them through about 20 phony shell companies. Thank goodness all those foreign governments and oligarchs and corporations are willing to take care of Joe's family so well that he doesn't have to share book royalties with them!
Can you point out all the powerful people commanding those kind of fees for one speech? Have their fees dried up too?

Needs citation.
Saw Comey give the press conference and his speech is on the FBI website. If a Republican under subpoena did what she did he'd be in prison. But you've illustrated my previous point from the other day. There is literally nothing you won't defend if it's your party doing it. Folks like you literally enable these politicians to break the law.You are not in the least dispassionate about Hillary. Here is an article from ABC News from the horse’s mouth (Comey).

10 Highest-Paid Public Speakers In the World
How much would you pay to see your favorite celebrity, politician or business leader speak? For some businesses and organizations, the answer is a lot more than you%u2019d expect.
You're welcome. Already pointed out the outstanding work done by Republican House committees exposing Biden corruption.
Now ask Bill and Hillary how many speeches for $500k+ they gave WHILE she was Secretary of State and then the presumed next president? Compare that with how many million dollar speeches Reagan gave. And did Reagan have a foundation receiving hundreds of millions that he used like a personal piggy bank?10 Highest-Paid Public Speakers In the World
